MAY 27-29 CANDACE BROWN AND MATT CADY

MEET CANDACE BROWN

Candace Renee Brown has been only dancing for only a short time, but has such a passion for it. She has experienced amazing things, and has been presented with great opportunities that have enhanced her as a dancer, and as a person. Candace first began her training in hip-hop at Bre Dance Studio in Riverside, Ca. After moving away from home to attend college at Cal State Fullerton, she was able to see that a whole world of dance existed outside of her hometown. She’s trained in mostly hip-hop taking classes from top LA choreographers such as Jaffar Smith, Tessandra Chavez, Brian Friedman, Marty Kudelka and others. She has danced on Funkanometry LA, and currently dances with Team Boogiezone Breed, and is Assistant Director of Essence Dance Company. Candace has had the opportunity to dance in various shows such as “Carnival” in LA, Vibe, Body Rock, Traffic, Monster’s of Hip Hop, and much more. Candace currently teaches hip-hop at Impact Dance Academy located in Azusa, Ca and enjoys the opportunity to share her passion for dance with her students. Candace has been greatly inspired by so many amazing and talented dancers that surround her everyday. In her journey with dance, she hopes to pass along that same inspiration to others.

MEET MATT CADY

Matt Cady was born and raised in the valley just minutes from the nearest major dance studio...and still, it took him 17 years before he ever even thought of dancing as a major profession. Recently turning 22 though, he's established himself as DDO/Liquid Talent Dance and Choreography client. He recently choreographed the music video "China Doll" for recording artist Natalise, and is working on her up and coming Los Angeles club tour. His choreography has received the Best Overall Choreography Award at multiple dance conventions on the east coast, including Shock and VIP, and is also currently on faculty at Intrigue Dance Intensive. Dancing wise, Matt was cast as a principal dancer in the Finger Eleven music video for "Paralyzer," and was cast for the stage show GLO at the Bellagio Hotel/Casino in Las Vegas during a High Roller's New Year's Eve Party. His unique jazz/funk style, that is focused on musicality, intricacy, and based upon unforgiving creativity, has granted him extreme praise from Brian Friedman, Shane Sparks, and the creators of the Carnival: The Choreographer's Ball. He currently teaches Jazz/Funk Int-Adv classes at Debbie Reynolds Dance Studio in North Hollywood, CA every Tuesday and Wednesday night at 8:30 pm.
